Hello all.

just wondering if anyone on here had made a bridal brooch bouquet?I absolutely love them, but they are so expensive and im on a tight budget. I have some brooches from my late grandmother and my h2b's late gran which id like to use. I also want to make 2 smaller ones for my bridesmaids.Could anyone give me advise on wheres best to get bits, and how to get a good shape.?

    There are lots of brides on here that have them and quite a few who made there own. If it helps I have a tutorial on my website https://www.3djewellery.co.uk/Instructions-on-how-to-make-a-brooch-bouquet.html and i believe some on You tube

    I followed a Youtube tutorial. I bought brooches from ebay but I also bought cheap costume jewellery from Primark and stuck it onto brooch pins/clasps that I got from ebay. I got my wire and florist tape from a wholesale florist but again this can be got just as cheap on ebay.

    Here's mine

    I made my own and it has cost me nearly £120 in brooches, buttons and materials. I think perhaps more, in hindsight I think i would have just had flowers as it would have been less faff and expense. However i am sure i will treasure it even more
